Transcript Unit 3 - Houston County Schools

Making Predictions
• Assume our class has 25 people, and the entire
Sophomore class has 100 people –therefore it is 4 times
larger.
• Predict that next Monday, how many people in our class
will:
1. Have red hair
2. Have Black or Brown hair
3. Have Blonde hair
• Now predict next Monday how many people in the
Sophomore class will:
4. Have red hair
5. Have Black or Brown hair
6. Have Blonde hair
Unit 4
•This unit Introduces inductive and deductive
reasoning, along with logic statements,
converse/inverse/contrapositive, values of
true/false and the Laws of Syllogism and
Detachment.
•It also addresses proofs, and sequences such
as the Fibonacci sequence and the Golden
Ratio.

Inductive Reasoning
• Inductive reasoning is based upon patterns you
observe.
• Inductive Reasoning is used to draw a General
Conclusion based upon Specific Examples. Your
conclusion may or may not be correct however.
• For example: if you had the pattern 3,6,12,24, what
would you predict would be the next number?
– It would be 48. Each number in the pattern is multiplied
times 2 to get the next number in the pattern.
– Or would it. What other patterns could you create?
Conjecture
• When you make a prediction, or a conclusion, based upon
inductive reasoning, you are making a Conjecture
• You can test a conjecture, but you can never 100 percent
prove it is true.
• For example, what is the next number in this pattern?
• 1,2,3,4,?
• You use inductive reasoning (looking at these specific
examples) and make a conjecture that the next number is 5
• But what if the pattern really went like this 1,2,3,4,3,2,1?
• You can predict the next number based upon the pattern,
but you cannot prove it, because there may be parts of the
pattern you have not seen yet.
Examples
• What are the next two terms in this pattern?
– 1,2,4,7,11,16,22…?,?
– Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday…?,?
– 5,10,20,40…?,?
– O,T,T,F,F,S,S,E…?,?
– J,F,M,A,M…?,?
Summing Odd Numbers
• What if you wanted to add the first four odd
numbers?
• In other words, you want to add 1+3+5+7
• Well, you could easily add those numbers and get
16
• But what if you wanted to add the first 83 odd
numbers? (1+3+5+7+9+11…etc…)
• Would you sit there and type 1+3+5+7+9+11…
etc. on your calculator?
• Hopefully, you would try to find a pattern
Summing Odd Numbers
• Try to find a pattern
• Here we see that we
can rewrite the sums of
odd numbers as
“squares”
• Remember, we wanted
to add the first 4 odd
numbers
• Here, our answer is 42
• So what would be the
sum of the first 83 odd
numbers?

What’s
special
about
each of
these
numbers?
Summing Even Numbers
Numbers
• We can also sum even
numbers in a similar
pattern:
• If we look at this, we see
the sum of the first five
even numbers is 5 x 6, or n
(the number we counted)
x (n+1) –the number we
counted plus one
• What if we wanted to sum
the first 75 even numbers?

2+4+6
2+4+6+8
2+4+6+8+10

= 2 = 1x2
= 6 = 2x3
= 12 = 3x4
= 20 = 4x5
= 30 = 5x6
That would be 75 x
76, or 5700
Karl Gauss
• Karl Gauss is a famous German Mathematician
(1777-1855)
• When he was in 3rd grade, he figured out how
to add all the numbers from 1 to 100 in ten
seconds
• How did he do it?
• Hint, He figured out a pattern…
• What was the pattern?
Summing All Numbers
Of course you know I wrote a program for this. It is called SUMINT2 in programs on
the calculator…
• Let N = the number of
numbers we add
• Karl added 100 numbers, so
N = 100
• The real question is:
• HOW MANY TIMES DID HE
ADD 101?
• He added “101” 50 times,
until he got to the middle 
• What looking at N = 100,
what is “50” in relation to
that?
• It is ½ of it, or N/2
1+100
2+99
3+98
…

=

101 =
(N+1)
(N+1)
(N+1)
(N+1)
(N+1)
(N+1)
Therefore, Karl made this
equation:
N/2 x (N+1)
Or  100/2 x (101) = 50 x
101 or 5050
Goldbach’s Conjecture
4 = 2+2
• In the early 1700’s, a
Prussian Mathematician 6 = 3+3
named Goldbach noticed 8 = 3+5
that even numbers greater
than 2 can be written as the
sum of two prime numbers.
• Again, this is an example of
Inductive Reasoning
• Can we ever prove this
Conjecture to be true?
10 = 3+7 16 = 3+13
12 = 5+7 18 = 5+13
14 = 3+11 20 = 3+17

Fibonacci Sequence
• The Fibonacci sequence is named after Leonardo of Pisa, who
was known as Fibonacci (a contraction of filius Bonaccio, "son
of Bonaccio".) Fibonacci's 1202 book Liber Abaci introduced
the sequence to Western European mathematics.
• 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89
Another Application of Fibonacci
• Fibonacci proposed a problem of rabbits: assuming
that: a newly-born pair of rabbits, one male, one
female, are put in a field; rabbits are able to mate at
the age of one month so that at the end of its second
month a female can produce another pair of rabbits;
rabbits never die and a mating pair always produces
one new pair (one male, one female) every month
from the second month on
• Therefore –after one month you only have your first
set of rabbits, but after two months you now have two
sets of rabbits
• The puzzle that Fibonacci posed was: how many pairs
will there be in one year?
The Rabbit Problem
NOTE:mate,

next month. Therefore, the “4th” month is really
• At the end of the second month
the female produces a new pair, so
F5
now there are 2 pairs of rabbits in the field.
• At the end of the third month, the original female produces a
second pair, making 3 pairs in all in the field.
• At the end of the fourth month, the original female has produced
yet another new pair, the female born two months ago produces
her first pair also, making 5 pairs.
• At the end of the nth month, the number of new pairs of rabbits is
equal to the number of pairs in month n-2 plus the number of
rabbits alive last month. This is the nth Fibonacci number.

Fibonacci and the Golden Ratio
• One of the unique ideas found in math is called
the golden ratio. This ratio is 1.618/1
• One of the most common places we find this
ratio is rectangles. A rectangle with the sides in
ratio of 1.618 – 1 is found to be pleasing to the
eye
• We will do a more in depth lesson on the golden
ratio later, but it is interesting to note that the
Fibonacci sequence can create the golden ratio

• Here is a short series of Fibonacci
numbers:
• To calculate the golden ratio, you
divide the number you want by the
number before it in the sequence –
for example 8 is divided by 5 ( =
1.6)
• The higher you go, the closer you
get to the exact golden ratio

• http://www.facialbeauty.org/divineproportion.html
Deductive Reasoning
• Deductive Reasoning is also called logical
reasoning
• Deductive Reasoning is the process of taking a
generally known fact, theorem or postulate
(something we hold to be true) and applying it to
a specific example.
• For example, we know that gravity makes things
fall. If I throw a ball into the air, I will logically
reason that this one, specific ball will fall to the
ground. I have applied a general theorem to a
specific example.
Conclusion
• Inductive Reasoning: Drawing a general
conclusion based upon specific examples.
Never 100 percent certain however
• Deductive Reasoning: Drawing a specific
conclusion based upon general rules or facts
that we know to be true. If the facts are true,
and the reasoning is sound, the conclusion
will always be true too.
Examples
• The train has been late 3 days in a row. You conclude it
will be late today. Is this inductive, or deductive
reasoning?
• A carpenter calculates what materials he needs to build
a shed. What kind of reasoning does he use?
• Karl has a Chevrolet Monte Carlo. He races Mr. Bass in
his Mustang, and Karl loses. He concludes that
Mustangs must be faster than Monte Carlos. What kind
of reasoning did Karl use?
• Based upon data gathered by NASA over a period of
years, Jim Lovell calculates the proper re-entry path for
Apollo 13. What kind of reasoning did Mr. Lovell use?
Conditional Statement
• A Conditional Statement is an If-Then
Statement
• Every conditional statement has two parts:
• The part following the “if” is the hypothesis
• The part following the “then” is the conclusion
Example -SUMINTGS
• This is a screen capture from
my calculator
• You are looking at
programming code
• Input C asks whether you want
to solve an Odd, Even, or All
numbers problem
• If C = 1, then what type of
problem will it solve?
• If C does not equal 1, then
calculator will not run this
problem
• This is an example of “If-Then”
logic
Example
• Identify the hypothesis and conclusion in
these statements:
• If today is the first day of fall, then the month
is September
• If y-3 = 5, then y = 8
• If you are not completely satisfied, then you
get your money back
Writing Conditionals
• Write this as a conditional: “A tiger is an
animal.”
• “If it is a tiger, then it is an animal.”
• Write this as a conditional: “A rectangle has
four right angles.”
• “If it is a rectangle, then it has four right
angles.”
Truth Values
• Conditional statements have truth values of
either True or False
• To show that a conditional is true, you must
show that every time the hypothesis is true,
the conclusion is true as well
• To show that a conditional is false, all you have
to do is prove it is not true once
• To do this, we use a “Counterexample”
Example
• Conditional: “If it is February, then there are
only 28 days in the month.”
• What is the counterexample?
– Leap Year
• If you are at Houston County High School, you
must live in Houston County
• What is the counterexample?
– Mr. Bass lives in Clarksville (Montgomery County)
and he’s at HCHS
Venn Diagrams
• This is how we read this:
Residents of Illinois
• All residents of Chicago are
residents of Illinois, but all
residents of Illinois are not
Residents of Chicago
residents of Chicago
• This is how we make it into a
conditional statement: If you are a
resident of Chicago then you are a
resident of Illinois
Converse of Conditional
• Converse: Switches the hypothesis and the
conclusion
• Conditional: If two lines intersect to form right
angles, then they are perpendicular
• Converse: If two lines are perpendicular, then
they intersect to form right angles
• Write the converse of this conditional:
• “If two lines are not parallel and do not
intersect, then they are skew”
Truth Values of Converses
• Consider this conditional statement:
• If a figure is a square, then it has four sides.
• What is the truth value of this statement?
– This is true. There is no square without four sides.
There is no counterexample.
•
•
•
•
Now write the converse:
If a figure has four sides, then it is a square.
What is the truth value of this statement?
This is false. Rectangles have four sides, but they
aren’t all square
Examples
• If two lines do not intersect, then they are
parallel
– What is the truth value of this statement?
– If it is false, what is the counterexample?
– What is the converse of this statement?
• If two lines are parallel, then they do not
intersect
– What is the truth value of this statement?
– If it is false, what is the counterexample?
Examples
•
•
•
•
•
•
If x = 2, then |x| = 2
True?
What is the converse?
If |x| = 2, then x = 2
True?
Hint: Absolute value problems always have a
counterexample (the negative)
Examples
•
•
•
•
•
•
If x = 4, then x2 = 16
True?
What is the converse?
If x2 = 16 then x = 4
True?
Hint: “square” problems always have a
counterexample (the negative)
